    Snow White: A Graphic Novel by Matt Phelan ages 10+
    I am keen on this reimagined graphic Snow White set in New York Metropolis within the 20s. Snow White’s dad is a Wall Avenue king, her stepmother is a Zigfield Follies star, and her seven small protectors are avenue youngsters. It’s SO fascinating how Phelan makes use of this historic setting to animate a well-known fairy story. The black and white illustrations set the tone for this darkish story with a contented ending.
